Re: SD "set up" to confront the Ex-H's new GF

Thanks to all who have responded to my post. Here's an update:

We are moving ahead with the clean-up at the house. I am not bashing the ex, just that when it takes a painting contractor, me and 2 neighbors nearly 3 weeks of working 12 hours a day to get the house back into a habitable state..well, let's just say cleaning wasn't her forte.

The boys (age 13 and 18) are doing okay so far. SD is still acting out with her Dad -- and being fueled by the ex. This too was expected.

I totally agree with gettingby's comment, and would like to add that the kids did know that I would be there cleaning.

This situation just totally stinks in that the ex has been out with friends -- who just happen to be mutual friends and after a few (or more) drinks tends to tell all that she is doing via the kids to try and make life difficult. No, I don't think she'll ever change, that's not anyone's issue but hers. The BF and I are trying to get the house back into a livable condition so that there will be a place for the kids to hang out with their friends (house is on a lake with beach access)just like they have done every summer of their lives.

As far as "playing lady of the house", well that has a bit of negative connotation to me, but I'll take it FWIW. I am not playing "new mom" or "another mom", I am their Dad's companion. Like it or don't, everyone deserves a chance to be happy.

Anyway, moving day is coming up in a few weeks. I am sure this will add another level of fuel to the drama that can be used against us. We will get through it though.
